Bryan Loritts Podcast

When individualism is prized above all, it can be difficult to communicate to others that there is truth that is not subjective, not up for debate—namely, the Word of God. In this week's message from 2 Timothy 3, Pastor Bryan highlights why it is vitally important to look to the Bible, rather than looking inward, to remind ourselves of truth. If the words contained in this book really are the very breath of God—a lamp to our feet and a light to our path—shouldn't our lives be saturated with them?

Explore the deep friendship between Paul and Timothy, highlighting courage in faith and wartime bravery. Witness the transformation of Timothy's fear through his bond with Paul. Delve into navigating fatherhood and leaving a legacy for the next generation. Discover a story of faith through generations and the transformative power of embracing Jesus for personal growth.

As followers of Jesus, we wouldn't disagree with the need to make disciples. But the reality is that it requires both intentionality and a significant investment of time—one that we may feel we simply don't have, at least according to our busy calendars. In this week's message from 2 Timothy 2, Pastor Bryan shows us the importance of prioritizing disciple-making in our lives. When we take the time to pour into others, sowing the seed of the gospel, we may just find that those around us are inspired to do the same.

Explore the confrontations between Elijah and the prophets of Baal and how they relate to the need for a word from God. Reflect on the importance of caring for the neglected cemetery and living on mission. Discover the concept of idols in our lives and how they are shaken to get our attention. Delve into the pain of remaining the same versus the pain of change. Understand how encountering God's glory leads to transformation. Hear a personal story of praying and fasting for healing from pancreatic cancer.

The podcast discusses the importance and power of bold prayer, using examples from 1 Kings chapter 18. It highlights the significance of prayer in decision-making, the influence of attention on actions, and the choice between following God or Baal. The podcast also emphasizes the importance of renewing awe for God, understanding our righteousness in Christ, and experiencing God's miracles. It concludes with three prayer requests for the 21 days of prayer and fasting.

Christmas can stir up many different emotions. For some, it generates excitement and anticipation. But for others, particularly those who find themselves in the midst of a difficult season of life, it may feel more sorrowful than joyful. So what do we do when it simply doesn't "feel" like Christmas? This is precisely the question that Pastor Bryan considers in this week's message from Revelation 5. As we look at a second image that the Bible uses to describe Jesus and how he comes to us, we see that in beholding him as the Lamb of God, we gain a perhaps much-needed change of perspective during this Christmas season.
